Package: project Version: 1.3 (?) I installed, yesterday, what is supposed to become version 1.3. I got this from ftp.debian.org, downloaded to create a local version on a disk partition (my connection is via slip, so network installation is unlikely to succeed).
In general, I must say that the experience was the best I have had with any linux distribution, going back to a pre-slackware release whose name I forgot a long time ago. I had installed debian 1.1 (again, before official release), and had many troubles with dselect, but that went reasonably smoothly this time. The reason I had to re-install was that, with all my troubles before, I had gone "outside" the debian system to replace a program or two, which somehow confused dpkg, and it refused to work from then on. A few minor problems: In dselect, running "configure packages" multiple times, as suggested in the documentation, did not seem to correct some of the misinstalled packages (Xserver, xext). But, I gotta say I am a happy camper. Finally, my mail is working correctly (never did work in 1.1, since I foolishly tried to set up sendmail. smail is working perfectly now. I have a few minor bug reports, which I will post according to the appropriate package. -- David L.
